A teenager’s search for escape and self-expression through punk music in middle class Ontario.
lyrics
We are young,
We are slight,
And we fight the good fight.
We are here,
But we’re definitely leaving here.
Oh,
This goddamn town
Won’t know what hit it when we’re back around,
But for now,
We’ll bide our time,
And sit and wait and…
This is not the place that we’ll stay,
This is just honest and intact,
Monotony at play,
This is not the where that we’ll go,
This is just middle class Ontario.
Go ahead and stay,
Be with your kind,
I’ll hold you to it, when you lose your mind.
Hear me out,
This is your one last chance to make it out.
Oh, my girl,
Look me in the face.
I cannot spend one more second in this place.
I feel sick,
And I’m definitely leaving here.
This is not the place that we’ll stay,
This is just honest and intact,
Monotony at play,
This is not the where that we’ll go,
This is just middle class Ontario.

From the start to finish, this is a powerful album. The only thing better than listening to it is seeing Skye Wallace and her band play live. jgoodeill

I heard you for the first time on CBS Saturday Mornings and loved your sound. I am also purchasing your 2021 release. I'm curious if you are/were inspired by Patty Griffin. wezweelaw
